Doesn’t take much to trigger everyone here

My favourite was when he had the chance to save us after the siren from the humiliation of being the first team to lose to the Gold Coast and in true Hoff style he shanked it from 30 metres out on a very slight angle and barely scraped it in for a point

HOFF! HOFF! HOFF! HOFF! HOFF! HOFF!

Interestingly, no one has mentioned Robbie's last comments of the co-captaincy. He started with is being OK, but then ended with:

"In the end, whatever decision is made will be in the best interests of the club"

Good onya Robbie ... That is the correct line to take!

 

[FPPF]

Jonas needs to be thrown out of the club along with Hinkley and Koch.

Isn't it interesting that the people who are acting like captains aren't our captains?

I'd take Hammer and Robbie as Captains over Jonas and Wines any day of the week.

Not sure I have ever disliked some Port players as much as i do now (and coach/s). Even when we were getting snotted in the late Choco and Primus years I did not have this level of dislike for some of them.

 

[manureid]

Can a club have no captains? Just do the junior sport method of a different coin tosser each week.

 

[TeeKray]

Jonas is a self-entitled flog. If it's between the two of them, I'd 10x prefer Ollie as sole captain - at least he speaks about Port Adelaide traditions and supporters with respect even if it is possibly lip service.

And yet, Ollie is the one who wanted to be traded just weeks ago.

What a choice we have.

 

[Tredz]

fu** Tom Jonas the self important w***er.

 

[PAFC66]

Why didn't get go to Sydney

You've only just noticed? Where have you been for the last 3 months.
Anyway, I think it all starts with his mouthguard.

With all our issues at least a tosser shortage isn't one.

No one, and I mean literally no one, is suggesting the single captain model will give is more wins.

It's about the loss of a highly visible tradition that links us to our past, for no discernible gain other than making Tom and Ollie's lives a bit less hard and difficult. We've diluted our identity for these bozos and they can't even see that this is the case.

Yeah i get that tradition is important but one thing Jonas said that was correct is that we wouldn't be complaining about the co captaincy if we won the flag. I think we would all sacrifice some tradition in order to win games of footy, but the fact is we didn't win the flag we finished 10th...again. It was sold to us on the basis it would improve on field performance. All i was saying is that it wouldn't make any difference to on field performance either way.

Was in Glasgow tonight to watch Celtic play.. Not the most exciting game but ticked off a bucket list thing for me.

Walked past a statue of someone who knew a bit about winning at a club that knows a bit about winning.

Thought of some of the things that Mr Jonas and others have said recently.

Apologies for the photo taken on my Samsung potato when it was 30 degrees cooler than adelaide.

Ollie speaks about our tradition and stuff, he talks a good talk but cant cut it when it counts on the field.

Why is there so much hate for Jonas?

Each time i watch him he puts it all on the line, he mightn't be the most talented player, but always seems to give his best, crashes blokes over, helps out teammates and has to put up with continually being out of position due to our turnover riddled midfield burning the footy as we all stream forward.

Hes the least of our problems, imho

Which is the point: why do it in the first place?

A fit Jonas is a solid player ... a captain Jonas? That is a different beast - His stocks have crashed! If he was listed on the stock exchange, he would be in a trading halt as they call in the administrators to sort the mess out!

 

[gbear]

If port have Co-captains yet again next year, neither Jonas or Wines should be one of them.
